We showered flowers on the people, who have shown their true colours by lowering the level of politics and attacking on our party leader in such a way," Suraj Singh Thakur, former office-bearer of National Students Union of (NSUI), who led the protest, said.

"We not only showered flowers on them, but also wished them 'get well soon'. We hope the would recover from their mental sickness," Thakur added.
